Impressed with the Mail literally adding up all government spending over the entire period to get to £4 trillion. Adjusted for inflation Margaret Thatcher spent like £10 trillion pounds as PM! Disgrace.

Just watched ep. 8 of Andor. Filmed in 2023, but plot revolving around the Empire sending stormtroopers to a city, deliberately provoking demonstrations, and then ensuring that violence ensues as an excuse for imposing military rule/occupation doesn't exactly look subtle right now..

You have to love the Brexiters losing their collective shit over Gibraltar becoming part of the Schengen Area. It's happening BECAUSE of Brexit which has made life very difficult on the Rock and that's why 95.9% of Gibraltarians voted remain.... but apparently Starmer is giving it away

Sawdust in the veggie garden: great for paths, moisture retention, and weed suppression. Composted, it boosts soil structure & nutrients naturally. Be careful to only use untreated sawdust to avoid harmful chemicals. Use aged/hardwood. #gardening #sawdust #vegetablegarden #soilhealth #organic

Between Falkner's comments today, Reindorf's et al it seems clear the EHRC is arguing that trans and non-binary individuals not only shouldn't have equal rights, but they should have fewer rights than others. This shows how deeply the dehumanisation of trans and non-binary individuals is embedded

If Brexity folks start crying crocodile tears about the people of Gibraltar, note that a) the Gibraltar first minister supports this deal b) Brexity people sure as hell didn't care how Gibraltar voted in the 2016 Brexit referendum

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Among so much which is wrong about this statement from Miller, there is nothing "courageous" about ICE. These are the people who were bullies at school and never changed. Wearing full tactical gear and face masks to detain kids is hardly any decent person's definition of "courageous".

Did you know that 2/3 of America's fruit comes from California? Did you know that 80% of US wine is grown in CA & 1/3 the country's veggies? Over 75% of agricultural workers here are undocumented. If we abduct them, food will become scarce & prices will soar!

Sir Ed Davey asks PM to promise that social care and unpaid carers are prioritised in the spending review. As ever, it'll be important to watch the DHSC budget closely to see how much goes to social care, which often feels it is the cinderella service next to NHS. #PMQs

Interesting to hear Rachel Reeves spend as much time attacking Reform UK's spending plans as the Conservatives' record. Matches Starmer's mantra that Reform UK are now Labour's biggest threat. #SpendingReview

Reeves says she's making the "biggest cash injection into social and affordable housing for the last fifty years" Given how little has gone in in that time, that could be less impressive than it sounds.

Reeves using the spending review to reannounce exactly what the government had already promised on migration: - Stop using hotels: Good. - Spend more on enforcement: Bad, useless, performative, Trumpian, stupid, harmful, a money pit that will never be filled or satisfied, dumb.

If you don’t think Reform are being directly aided and abetted by the British press, then ask yourself this: why has a question asked by a Reform MP at PMQs, about banning the burka, been front and centre in discussions on the BBC, LBC and Sky News for over a week?

Reeves is correct in what she is saying right now. Her reform of the fiscal rules to differentiate investment from current spending was crucial. There's much to criticise her for, but she gets nowhere near enough recognition for this.

Brilliant thread! Do take a look. It's bad enough being wise after the event, but it's nuts to think you can be wise before it.
